Exposure of the alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata to environmentally relevant concentrations of the herbicide metolachlor: Impact on the redox homeostasis

This study investigated the effect of the herbicide metolachlor (MET) on the redox homeostasis of the freshwater green alga Pseudokirchneriella subcapitata. At low MET concentrations (≤40 μg L−1), no effects on algal cells were detected. The exposure of P. subcapitata to 45–235 μg L−1 MET induced a...
